I presume this means you have no objections in principle to looking
at men's "nether regions" as well. The truly funny thing is that if
it were a big, burly construction worker with beer gut bent over that
way to share a sensitive moment with a pregnant woman and her
friends, the TCB would instead add a sense of poignancy and humor
rather than be a distraction. But the woman's derriere adds nothing,
her posture is totally unflattering to her, and it detracts from the
moment that was the point of the photograph.
So much ado about nothing. It's a crummy pic, that's all. It could
have been a pretty good pic, the moment is there, but it didn't
capture the moment in a pleasing composition.
